gradually rising against Germany. The
populace is being excited by speeches,
demanding the liberationo of Alsaee-Lor-

MANY of our citizens who have spare
cash have and are now investing it in
banking and other enterprises outside
of our town. This is a loss to the increas-
ing prosperity of the town. AS our
town is growing rapidly and new indus
tries starting increased facilities for
business exchanges is greatly needed.
It is very ~inconyenient for those who
want checks cashed to go to Salem,
Woodstown, or Philadelphia, and the
cashing of checks by our accommodate
ing business men is becoming more than
is desired. There is no town in South
Jersey better situated for business IA
cilities OF manufacturing industries,
owing to easy and cheap communicd-
lions in every direction by rail and wa
ter. Where industries locate, which
handle any amount of money, they
need the best facilities for exchange.
Many of u citizens often have small
sums of money in their houses, liable
to be stolen or burned, which would be
deposit in a bank if it vas convenient
This is also a borrowing community.
Many fishermen borrow money for a
short time of outside parties now with
which to rig their nets, and pay back
in fishing time. Owing to no medium
of exchange the home capital which
might be used now lays idle.
If the capital u citizens are invest
ing elsewhere was put together 1t would
form a nucleus for a National Bank
and would attract enough outside cap
ital to insure the starting of one. The
fact that there is no bank within ten
miles, except across the river and no
one goes there to do banking, would be
an assurance of its success, The
Swedesboro bank started two years ago
is a paying institution, although it is
within five miles of Woodstown and
ten miles of Woodbury. with easy COM
%mupication to each. Another bank is
starting at Woodbury., where there is
one already, and soon another will be
talked of for Salem. There is no reas-
on to doubt but that a bank would pay
in Pennsgrove if some of the capitalists
would show enterprise enough to start
one.

FINANCIAL SECURITY.
A MODEL safe az the Fnrmers' q
Merchants, hank.

Yesterday there was placed iu the
fireproof vault Of the Farmers & Mer-
chants Bank IN this city Diebolds
steel safe, which is perfect model Of
its kind. This is meant to be. and is--a
perfectly burglar proof safe. 1t is guar.
anteed to resist the attack even Of
dynamite. 1t is constructed Of the
finest steel made by modern science, laid
sheet over sheet and all riveted together
fast as adamant The safe weighs five
tons and the doors fasten by two sepa.
rate combination locks, aud Yale time
lock of the most approved construction.
The cost of the affair is $1,000.
The Farmers & Merchants has
had similar safe for a long
time passed, but OF smaller size.
This is now obtained to secure
the immense increase of treasure stored
lin this great financial institution. As
the vault is both FIRE and burglar-proof,
ii will defy the skill of the crsftiest
craeksman to penetrate the safeguards
here provided tor the deposits OF patrons
of this bank.
Mr.. w. Hellman, President of this
institution. may well feel a pardonable
pride in its success. The Farmers and
Merchants was organized in 1868. The
other day it increased its capital from
500, 900 to $500, 900. This did not en-
croach one cent on the large surplus Of
over half million dollars held as O re.
serve fund by the bank. The working
capital Of this bulwark to the financial
affairs of Los Angeles is therefore over
a round million of dollars. The COM
bined wealth of the stockholders aggre.
gates some sl00e0,000. BY the laws of
this State, under which the Farmers
and Merchants Bank is organ
lied, each stockholder is liable for
all debts OF the bank in proportion
to the amount of stock he owns. This
law is peculiar to California and affords
to depositors in our banks greater Sc
curity than under any other system of
banking in the land. The deposits in
the bank show how well this is under.

to-day carries S3, 500, 900 of the peoples

the par value of which is 500 per
share, was worth in open market S4O0 a
share, and as by the laws of the State
the old stockholders had the preference,
the bank remains in the same hands in
which it was when organized in in iis
present form in 1871.
Since its inception Mr.. Hellman has
been its President. To his indefatigablt
industry, conservative policy and fine
financial policy it owes its great success
